The experience
A closer look at your trip
Spend a full day getting to know Barcelona with other gay travellers. The plan starts with GaudĂ on Passeig de GrĂ cia and the Sagrada FamĂlia, then slows down for a market tasting and a walk through the Gothic Quarter and El Born. Meet at a central point on Passeig de GrĂ cia in the morning. The day finishes in the Eixample in the evening, close to the bars of the neighbourhood locals call the Gaixample, so you can stay out or head back independently. Travel between stops is on foot and by metro. A local guide leads the architecture and old town walks. A welcome coffee, a market tasting and a tapas dinner give you time to talk and get to know the group, with free time in the afternoon.

FAQ
Before you book
Straight answers to the usual questions.
What is gay social travel?
Group trips for gay travellers who want to explore a place and meet people along the way. Each trip page sets out the itinerary, what is included and the local operator running it.
Can I come on my own?
Yes. You can also book together with friends or a partner on one booking, and choose your rooms.
How does booking work?
Choose a date and how many of you are going, then reserve your place with your name, email and WhatsApp number. For overnight trips you also choose rooms and add everyone's name for the hotel. Your host then messages you on WhatsApp to confirm your place. You're only charged once it's confirmed.
Who will I travel with?
A small group of gay travellers. Each date shows its age group: ages 18 to 35, ages 35 to 50, or all ages. It's a guide, not a rule: a few years outside the range is fine if the pace suits you, and we never ask your age. Your host looks after the group on the trip.
